Hi Starsparkle, I only joined yesterday so am new to all this and not really sure what I am doing at the moment. I have been thinking about doing a photo diary but will just show from the neck down I think. This is not going to be a pretty sight believe me and may even be deemed to be too offensive, lol, but I think its a good way to see progress, (I hope). I am willing to do anything it takes to get the new leaner, fitter healthier body I deserve ( I am determined to feel for the first time in my life that I am worth something and feel proud of myself) I will keep you all posted, wish me luck xx

Hi starsparkle 😀

I really wish I took a proper before picture but unfortunately at that time didn't want a visual reminder of how fat I really was. Now that I've achieved my goal I really wish I could compare a like for like picture to see the difference😇

I was asked just yesterday after posting about me in my new size 12's, 'do you have a before picture' I looked through all my pics and the few I actually have of me I made sure I'm hiding behind objects, kids or big thick coats 🤔 lol !!

I did take a few measurements tummy and hips and obviously my starting weight but really wish I took a before pic 👍😀

So my advice is go for it!! However bad the before picture is imagine what the AFTER picture will be like !!! xxx

this is my before and after. I took this pic 3 months ago when I used to be 5 kgs heavier.

But the difference is still striking. My profile pic is the new me!

wow! And that was in 11 weeks? Xx

I have a few years worth of photos on my phone. Facebook is a surprising source of inspiration. It gives you memories from a year ago. I cannot believe the difference looking at this morning's offering.

I wish I had taken a naked, or almost naked, picture before. I've lost more than 6 stone but I would love to see the comparison because I don't feel a great deal smaller. Plus I think it would stop me going back there.

That would be the only thing I would change if I could go back.
